Nobody's dumb enough to kick 
the ball if they plan to lose.
.لا أحد غبي ما يكفي لركل الكرة إن كانوا يخططون للخسارة
Niemand spielt, der glaubt,
zu verlieren.
Nadie sigue pateando el balón
si sabe que perderá.
Nadie sigue pateando el balón
si sabe que perderá.
Personne joue
en se disant que c’est perdu d’avance.
Nessuno è tanto stupido
da calciare la palla pensando di perdere.
Ninguém joga achando que vai perder.
Нет дураков, пробивающих
по мячу с желанием проиграть.
